His brother Robert Jr. running around talking trash about how Trayvon had plans for George for the night and it was too bad it didn’t work out. Then he tries to hammer it home the jury agreed, as if they weren’t bound by that stupid stand your ground law that allows someone like George to pursue, but then shoot someone when they find out they bit off more than they could chew!
